*Isabella POV*
I look down at my hands that seem to be sprouting fur my fingers shrinking and my fingernails extending and thickening. I am positive I am insane now. Every hair seems to rip open my skin. I can't see any blood but how can there be so much pain and no blood.
Maybe I have died and gone to hell, this is my punishment for my indifference to life, for not appreciating what I have, for my lack of love.
The pain suddenly stops. My eyesight in the night is so good. I look around and push myself up. I look at my hands. Well not hands, paws. I move it. It's a paw and I seem to be able to move it.
What the FVCK?
I take a tentative step forward. No pain, no falling.
I walk slowly and work into a trot and slowly start to run. I slalom around trees, moving faster and faster as I get used to the feeling. I run further and further and faster and faster. The speed is intense. The cold breeze over my wet nose tickles slightly but I have the most satisfying sense of freedom. I close my eyes and feel the rush.
I sit up in bed with a start. I look at my hands in shock. Turning them back and forth. Nope just hands. Clean, soft hair free hands, long fingers perfectly manicured short nails. I run my hand down my arms. Clean, hair free normal arms.
I struggle to stand and look in the mirror. I look completely normal, apart from being naked. There is a knock at the door.
"Who….who is it?"
I croak my voice scratchy and barely audible.
"It's me"
Lachlan's voice.
"Come in"
He opens the door. I don't even look at him, I just stare blankly in the mirror at my naked body. Was it just a dream? My body hurts like hell but what happened? How did I get back?
What am I thinking? Of course it was a dream, how would I survive that much pain and then what turn into a dog.
Yesterday was weird, really, really, really weird.
Chalk one up to my slow decline into insanity. Maybe rapidly increasing decline into insanity since in a day the speed increased exponentially.
Lachlan comes up behind me and wraps his arms around my waist. Resting his chin on my shoulder.
"Are you feeling better, I was so worried about you last night, I hardly slept"
"I am not sure, my muscles hurt so much"
"The flu?"
I shake my head.
"I don't know, I guess so"
"Let's take the day off today, together"
I nod slowly, I am still in pain and walking like an old lady, there is no way I can go to school. Lachlan grabs another shirt out of my draw and pulls it over me.
"Sorry babe there is no way I can look at that sexy body all day and not do anything to you"
I give him a small smile and struggle to walk back to the bed. Lachlan sweeps me off my feet and carries me to the bed. Settling himself in behind me before leaning me back into his chest. He gently massages my shoulders and down my arms.
"I kind of like it when you are so dependent on me"
I nod slightly and close my eyes settling into his warm chest. I stare at the ceiling. How can a dream be so real, I definitely need to see a psychiatrist.
So I believe I am so much of a b***h that I dream of transforming into a dog?
My muscles start to relax under his massage.
"Lachlan do you think I am a b***h?"
He laughs and kisses the top of my head.
"Why would I be with you if I thought you were a b***h?"
"I dunno you are a sucker for punishment"
"You are one of the nicest people I know"
Wow my disguise is more deceiving than I thought.
"How so?"
"Well I know that anyone on either of your team's goes straight to you when they have a problem, you never exclude anyone even when I know you dislike them"
"What do you mean?"
"Cassie, you hate her but she deserved to be on the team you could have stopped her but you didn't"
"So that makes me a good person?"
"What do you think makes someone a good person?"
"Love"
"That doesn't make a good person, a person could love one person with all their heart and treat everyone else like dirt, do you understand what I am saying?"
"I do"
I relax back further. Be happy with what I got. I am not a terrible person. Well I will choose to believe the lie anyway.
"Are you feeling better?"
"You could massage one more place"
He breathes on my ear and bites my lobe.
"Hands, tongue or other"
"All of the above"
I roll over in his arms and climb up his body slightly to kiss him. My hands on his shoulders. He holds me in place.
"Are you sure you are well enough?"
"I am"
It's only been an hour and I feel 100% better. I actually feel really good. I kiss him again. His tongue explores my mouth as he pulls me closer to him and slides down the bed with me on top of him. He rolls over and kisses me hard. He kisses down my neck and along my shoulder. As soon as his lips hit the part where my neck meets my shoulder I grip the sheets under my body hard. Twisting the material in my hands tight. My back arches and I gasp. My eyes close tight and the dark deep eyes flash through my mind.
Lachlan lifts his body slightly off mine, his blue eyes looking curiously at me.
"Are you okay babe?"
I clench my thighs together and try and calm down.
"I am fine"
"Are you still hurting?"
I can't tell him that I nearly came from a kiss in the neck can I? That is pretty weird.
"No I am fine, seriously"
I kiss him again to shut him up. I pull him back down on my body. I run my tongue from his lips to his ear.
"Take me from behind"
